	Movies - Bill Weasley

Bill Weasley (born November 29, 1970) is a fictional character in the Harry Potter series, the oldest son of Molly and Arthur Weasley and the brother of Charlie, Percy, Fred, George, Ron, and Ginny.

Bill attended Hogwarts as a Gryffindor from 1982 to 1989, becoming both a prefect and Head Boy. Later, he worked for Gringotts Bank in Egypt as a curse breaker.

In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Bill returns to Britain to work for the Order of the Phoenix. After a year of knowing Fleur Delacour and a lot of "private lessons" in English, Bill proposes to Fleur and she accepts. In The Half Blood Prince, Bill and Fleur are engaged to be married, and the summer before Harry and Ron's sixth year of school Bill brings his fiancée to get to know his family.

Prior to the events in the sixth book, he is described as being a good looking young man (when Fleur sees him in The Goblet of Fire, she is impressed and eyes him with "great interest") and has long red hair tied back in a ponytail and single fang earring. In fact, Harry notes that a guy like Bill would not be out of place at a rock concert, and Harry is surprised that Bill (perfect student, prefect and Head Boy at Hogwarts) is so unlike Percy. Bill's unorthodox looks makes his mother Mrs. Weasley despair, although everyone else is fine with it. Ginny especially looks up to her eldest brother. Bill fought bravely in the Battle of Hogwarts, but did not escape unscathed. The werewolf Fenrir Greyback savaged Bill, albeit in his human form, and caused lycanthropy contamination to an unknown, partial extent. According to Remus Lupin, who is also a werewolf, this was not enough to cause actual transformations, though Bill has apparently developed a liking for extremely rare steaks and is left with a deeply scarred face. His and Fleur Delacour's plans to marry are unchanged; indeed, Fleur's firm plans to marry him despite his scarred face seems to have gained her a lot of respect from Bill's otherwise disapproving family.
